Reviews

As someone who lives in Long Beach, it was not difficult to navigate through the area and parking situation. There seemed to be a great traffic flow, it was not jam-packed with cars. It was a beautiful run along the water, hardly any incline and only one set of 2-step stairs to run through, with proper signage so runners could not miss it and trip. The 10K departs first and due to the trail being back and forth, you do run into 10K runners on their back half of the race, but only for a short while. It makes for a great cheering session. Participants dressed up and it made the ambiance more fun as well. Overall a fun time!

The course is run along the scenic city streets around a lake and a beautiful oceanfront view. Fully stocked aid station at the start area, with Gatorade, water, bananas, chips, cookies, and more. Beautiful 5 medal to all finishers.

You wont want to miss this scenic race, through Old Town Seal Beach, featuring historic landmarks and amazing views of the beautiful Pacific Ocean. This one of a kind course takes you along the San Gabriel river, past stunning homes on the famous Gold Coast and our iconic wood pier.

This event is a fun-family event with a 5K Run/Walk, Health & Safety Expo, Food & Entertainment, and fundraising opportunity to help support programs and direct services at the Crime Survivors Resource Center.

Please join us on the roads of beautiful Yorba Linda, California as we come together to honor the service and sacrifice of our hometown heroes, United States Marines; Lance Corporal Rick Centanni and Sergeant Major Robert RJ Cottle.
